I love this..I don't have India Ink, I guess this would work with Platinum Carbon? It's a great technique, I particularly love the transition between the base of the foreground tree and the water..
That’s fantastic, I’m looking forward to trying this technique. Thanks for sharing this with us. What brush did you use for the India ink? The bristles appear to not spread out or flex.
Thanks very much. I didn’t use a brush, it’s basically a matchstick that i glued into the ferrule of an old brush and sharpened with a craft knife. A sharpened stick or a dip pen will work just fine.
It’s a very simple setup. I made it myself with two triangles of ply, cut to approximately 30 degrees. Then glued another piece of ply on top for the painting area. I sometimes use another loose sheet of wood as a drawing board, that can be moved if needed. Hope that all makes sense.

Very similar to a technique called "Mocha" used as a decorative style for earthenware pottery.
I see what mean

Thanks Simon. I’ve not used Platinum Carbon, although I know it’s waterproof, so I’m sure it will work. Acrylic ink is also a good alternative
Love this! I’m curious what kind of watercolors these are, the brand? I’m figuring out my favorites .
Thanks so much. I don’t stick to one brand of paint, some of my favourites are Lukas, Daniel Smith, W&N, Jackson’s own brand.
@@ChrisStephenArt thank you for this! It’s very helpful in knowing some to try out.

Here’s another video in which I make a stick pen, hope it helps. ua-cam.com/video/78fRNVhXAHk/v-deo.htmlsi=JGAk9TUEK-AHTL_b
@@ChrisStephenArt Yes this does help. I had no idea the brush is actually a stick pen. Thank you.
@@ChapmanGriffith You’re welcome! I got the idea for the matchstick pen from John Hoar, a fantastic line and wash and watercolour artist
Очень красиво, акварельно!
Thank you !!
Seen in Philip Jamieson ( UK ) book
He was a great watercolourist
Can you share your desktop easel setup?
